Courage Performance offers a training program unlike any other. It is designed to help you move better, perform better, function better, and LIVE better.

It is TRUE fitness, the way the human body was designed. It is function and fun amongst friends and family.

History

Established in 2005.

After his professional baseball career ended, Josh Courage worked as a personal trainer in DC. By training different people of many different fitness levels, he developed a framework for how best to help them achieve their goals: teach them how to move better. Courage Performance is the natural product of that simple credo. We welcome the opportunity to work with anyone who wants to improve themselves — from children and adults to high school, collegiate, and professional athletes. The company has grown since it was founded in 2005, and we now have two locations — one in Washington, D.C. and one in San Mateo, CA – but our collective focus remains the same. We want to give people the tools they need to improve their lives through fitness.
